Headline:

Study found that a wide range of domains are relevant to assessing outcomes of interventions in forensic mental health services, with recidivism being a very high priority. Evaluations need to take account of public safety, but also clinical, rehabilitation and humanitarian outcomes, and greater attention should be given to validity of measurement
